  • Integrated graphics
  • Battery life is only OK
  • More fan noise than we'd like
  • Slightly heavier than some 13-inch Ultrabooks on the market despite smaller screen size
  • Port selection is a little light
  • And there's no SD card reader
  • A chunky tablet at best
  • A little thicker and heavier than some dedicated laptops
  • Like the XPS 13
  • No SD card slot
  • Fan spins up quickly and often
  • For all the hype about touch and tablets with Windows 8

  • With a starting price of Rs 94,990, the XPS 12 is one expensive notebook, even for an Ultrabook. While it does have a very good feature set, behind the fancy new rotating screen, it's a very average performing notebook. The hybrid nature of the device is...

  • Sleek design, Solid build with materials made up of carbon fiber, aluminium and magnesium, Good IPS display with full HD resolution
  • Fan noise when doing intensive tasks, Horrible trackpad, Heavy for a 12.5″ ultrabook (1.54kg), Weak battery life
  • Priced at SGD$1,828, the general consumers might find it a little pricey for a Windows 8 laptop and hence, I think that the Dell XPS 12 is not targeted towards them but more for first movers who want to give this new form factor a try.Despite being slight...

  • la Dell XPS 12 es un equipo convertible de pantalla táctil delgado, potente e ingeniosamente diseñado que ofrece varias posiciones de pantalla
  • a pesar del despliegue publicitario alrededor de las funciones táctiles y la tableta con Windows 8, la XPS 12 funciona mejor como computadora portátil. La duración de la batería es otra desventaja
  • Dell ha renovado su concepto de computadora portátil Duo giratoria y ofrece ahora la mejorada XPS 12, pero igual que la mayoría de los equipos convertibles, es mejor como computadora portátil que como tableta....
